Fig. 90.—Athripsodes alagnuis sclerotized lateral arms arise at the ex- treme base, progressing for a distance parallel with the rest of the tergite; moderately upturned near apex and with the end truncate. Cerci short, as wide as long and deeply incised laterally near apex to form a narrow apical pro- jection on the mesal side. Claspers with the basal portion projecting into a long, pointed process, the apical lobe sub- membranous, fusiform and markedly curved caudad; the sclerotized process curved, either slightly truncate or round- ed at apex. The basal portion of each clasper has a baso-mesal projection which is truncate, with a basal thread and a semitruncate or semiangulate smaller projection just above this on the meson. Oedagus short and deep with a small lateral flange and with the apex pointed. Of the internal structures, the most conspicuous is a pair of heavily sclerotized spines which are more than half the length of the oedagus, bulbous at base and pointed at apex.
